You can buy versions of it that don’t smell like eggs, though they never smell good. That it turns purple is convenient when you spray it off, imho at least.

Thanks, will check that out.
Command line stuff on Windows (server) is in a pretty decent state now, imo. It’s not perfect but more and more is manageable with powershell. It took some time to really grok that you’re basically always working with objects but I’m a big fan and now quite dislike having to deal with just “text” output when I do something in Linux. (Probably also because I need to do a lot less in it so I’m not used to it as much)
Personally again I also like the naming scheme much more than how it’s done in bash. If I need to do something I don’t know I can search the command by using logical words. E.g. I want to change the properties of a service but don’t know the command by heart I can use
Get-Command service
And I’ll get a list of all commands that contain the word service.
When it comes to admin privileges you simply have the privileges of the account you used to start the session, which has its’ own dangers I suppose since it requires you to maintain account hygiene yourself.
That’s premium light, they tried and killed it.
There’s a difference between a shattered pelvis and being impaled because someone thought sharp corners are cool and safety standards are oppression.
Consentomatic. Automatic rejection of all unnecessary cookies. It’s not perfect but works often enough to be worth it.
The physical market was long gone before Spotify happened, don’t make your legitimate complaints look silly by blaming Spotify for it. The music industry simply had no good answer to deal with digital media.
Spotify did seem to force their hand and some artists improved and adapted. And it’s never had a true monopoly with many different services coexesting and competing with it.
Thanks for the feedback, my most recent car does have a native YT music app so if I can keep a decent music library along with no ads it would be worth considering.
And Spotify shuffle in large playlist was plain broken for years indeed. I could have 1000+ songs in a list and shuffle would loop 20 of them.
Options are of course great. What makes YT music a better option than Spotify Premium for you if I might ask? I found when I was trying it years ago it didn’t seem to have an all encompassing music library. (It not having 10 years of playlists and recommendations that I do actually enjoy for new music is something I missed but couldn’t count against it as a product ofcourse)
I had the light subscription for over a year, not planning on paying for useless stuff like the music stuff though. Had it through a family plan years before and it was laughably bad compared to Spotify.
They literally had that experiment with Premium Light. €6 for ad free watching, it was all I needed. But they literally sent out a mail they were stopping this tier right before they started implementing more anti-ad blocking measures.
Yeah, but last time I checked they weren’t looking for new creators, though I’ll admit I know nearly nothing about this platform. But it is the platform I meant with the select few creators that made their own thing.
Niche hobby content creators have very few other methods of distributing their media content if it’s longer than 60 seconds. Look at Technology connections for example. Maybe now the larger of those niche creators could build a small platform for theiyown, but there’s no way new creators could rise up. And I watch 10 times as much of that type of content than I do of Netflix/Disney and Prime combined.
They explicitly slashed that plan before they started going hard against adblocking. They were running tests with premium light which costed about €6 a month. It was basically all I wanted. But they sent a mail this tier was going away at literally the same time I read they started hard locking anyone using uBlock. (Which I still used with Premium Light to block out all the shorts bullshit)
Sure, my comment is directly aimed at a comment stating Valve would basically brick your steam account for this, though. It’s disinformation I’ve seen at too many places this week or oddly enough. While Valve as the CS2 publisher preemptively told players they would unban people once their dlls were normal again.
Vac bans mean you can’t play on vac secured servers. Nothing happens to your other games. For a competitive multiplayer game some anticheat detection is wanted. People changing their dll’s to gain a competitive advantage is cheating. AMD making and distributing this unintentional cheat doesn’t change that.
I agree that buying directly or through GoG and backing up your games is the best thing to do. But this incident isn’t really related to that.
While I don’t think this in particular would cause people or businesses to switch away from Windows, more and more applications work from browsers so they depend less and less on apps you can install. ( Where I work we already put many people on M365 basic because they do just fine with accessing their mail and spreadsheets from the browser. No point in paying extra for options they’ll never need)
Yeah, I don’t doubt it. Still would have preferred if it wouldn’t have been turned on by default. (While recognizing I’m probably in the minority about that globally)
It’s a first world problem but I seriously dislike how random everything with language(and region) settings is. Half the time they follow my system defaults (UK English and Belgian datetime notation), 25% of the time the region settings are ignored and time is displayed weird and backwards with month first and the 12 hour format(MS is really bad with that). And the rest of the time bad geolocalisation people think everyone in Belgium speaks French even when that’s a minority language. So Firefox piling up on that with an unwanted request to translate languages I speak fluently is just annoying when I boot up my pc.
For me it’s popping up all the time and although I guess I understand why they did it, I absolutely hate it. I don’t want translations since I speak the different languages of the sites I visit fluently. Getting popups because I speak different languages is intrusive.
The previous videos were too long for anyone who doesn’t want to obsess about this. And this one is more pragmatic about your detergent of choice and thus more palatable for people who aren’t already fans of his.
It’s also takes him less time to make videos like this according to the messages on his patreon.
Personally I’m a fan of him remaking some videos like this. I can get my family to watch this a lot easier.
